A Cognizer possesses knowledge about the workings, significance, or meaning of an idea or object, which we call Phenomenon, and is able to make predictions about the behavior or occurrence of the Phenomenon. The Phenomenon may be incorporated into the wider knowledge structure via categorization, which can be indicated by the mention of a Category. The Cognizer may possess knowledge only in part and this may be expressed in a Completeness expression. The Cognizer may also be realized as a cognitive-emotional Faculty that is conceived of as having understanding.
